DISCUSSION OF MUSA FXPANSION APPLICATION <br />Hurr explained that the Met Council said that tlie MUSA application was incomplete because <br />we had not agreed that we would comply with the storm water management requirements that <br />are part of national regulations ioda\. In our (Mayor Callahan and Uurr) discussion with <br />Mary Smith, it seems that they arc comfortaDle with....six months or maybe a year. Mike <br />says it’s a minor amendment and once we agree to an acceptable timeframe, it could be <br />completed fairly quickly. Mr. Neales would like to proceed with his connection and the <br />purchaser of the property we are tr> ing to sell would also like to proceed. <br />Mayor Callahan stated that he feels there would be serious difficulties with the stormwater <br />plan. These concerns are contained in the Metropolitan Councils own draft of what they want <br />done. He warns that there will be problems down the road. However, with the new <br />information Hurr preseraed, it sounds as though the City would be involved in the problems <br />anyway. Would like to suggest that we dirvet staff to bring to budget meeting a resolution <br />draft to accomplish the substance of o'lr discussion tonight so that we can formally adopt <br />necessary language for the applicatimi. <br />It was moved by Mayor Cai’.ahan. seconded by Hurr, to appro\ed the Alan Nettles Sewer <br />Connection subject to the above request ot staff. Ayes: 4, Nays 0. <br />(#21) ALAN NETTLES SEWER CONNECTION <br />Moorse explained that Mr. Nettles proposes to pay his connection over time rather than in a <br />lump sum. Moorse has looked into this and determined that it would be easy to do - simply <br />add it as an assessment to his property. He warned, however, that this would set a precedent <br />and that there are other situations that would come up requesting the same arrangement. <br />Kelley asked where ilic money would go. <br />Moorse explained that it would be a\ailable to fund debt service. <br />Hurr asked how the figure was arrixed at. <br />Moorse explained that the original assessment was $9,235 and increased over the years by <br />costs of living increases. <br />Hurr asked what interest rate is paid by those individuals who opted to have the fee added as <br />an assessment. <br />Moorse stated that he believed it was about 8.5%. <br />Hurr stated that she feels the same rate of interest that original homeowners are paying would <br />have to be charged. <br />Kelley asked how long Mr. Nettles wants the term of payment to be. <br />Mr. Nettles proposed that since he parch ised the property' in August 1986, he would pay <br />down the fee to the point as other homeowners and to finance the remainder to the same term <br />as other homeowners at the same rale of interest.
